How it works
1 · You tell us the journey

Worth knowing
💸
What it costs you
Nothing above the fare for a straightforward booking. Where a service charge applies — on some international tickets — it is shown in the quotation before you agree to anything.
🚆
Train tickets
Booked through our IRCTC agent login, so our agency name appears on your ticket. Tatkal and senior citizen quotas are handled the same way — tell us and we will be ready when the window opens.
🔄
Changes and cancellations
Airline and railway rules apply as published, and we will tell you the penalty before you commit. We do not add a cancellation charge of our own.
In a hurry?
Message us directly and we will start looking straight away.

What the price always includes
These are not extras. If they apply to your journey, they are inside the figure we quote you.
⛽ Fuel
Calculated for the full route, including the return leg. Diesel price movements between quotation and travel are ours to absorb, not yours.
🛣️ Tolls and permits
State tolls, interstate permits and border charges, arranged in advance so nobody is collecting cash at a checkpost.
🅿️ Parking
Temple, monument, hotel and airport parking, wherever your itinerary takes you.
👨✈️ Driver allowance
Batta and night halt for the driver, so the request never reaches you at the end of a long day.
🧾 Taxes
GST and applicable taxes shown in the quotation, not added at the end as a surprise.
💧 On board
Bottled water throughout, and a vehicle cleaned before every departure.
What is quoted separately
We would rather tell you plainly than surprise you. These vary by choice, season or headcount, so they are listed as their own lines in your quotation.
🏨
Hotels
Quoted by category and room type once you tell us your preference, so you can compare before committing.
🎟️
Entry fees
Monument and museum tickets, which change by nationality and season. We list current rates in your quotation.

Our full published rate card — cars, tempo travellers, buses and luxury vehicles —

We work out which visa your trip actually needs, prepare the paperwork with you, and follow it through to the decision.
What we do
Included with the international tours we book for you. Travelling on your own
arrangements? Tell us where you are going and we will tell you what it takes.
🧭 Work out what you need
Which visa the itinerary calls for — including transit visas for airports you never leave, and the ones several cruise ports require even if you stay on the ship.
📄 The forms
Filled in with you and checked against that consulate’s current checklist before anything is submitted. A form sent back for a missing field costs you weeks.
📅 The appointment
Booked at the visa centre, with the slot fitted around your travel plan rather than the other way round.
📷 Photographs and documents
The exact size, background and paper the consulate asks for, and the supporting list for your category — sent to you before you go to the studio.
🔔 Followed to the decision
We track it and tell you where it is, instead of leaving you refreshing a status page.
🧺 Sequenced with your trip
Your tickets and hotels are timed around the visa, not booked blind before it. We tell you plainly what can wait and what cannot.
What we need from you
The exact list depends on the country and the visa category. We send you yours;
this is what almost every application starts with.
💳
Your passport
Valid at least six months beyond your return date, with blank pages left for the stamp. If it is close, renew it first — we will tell you.
📸
Photographs
To the consulate’s size and background, which is rarely the same as a passport photo you already have.
🗺
Your itinerary
Dates, flights and where you are staying. If we are booking the trip, we already have all of it.
💼
Supporting documents
Bank statements, an employment or school letter, an invitation letter where one applies — whichever your category asks for.
Worth being clear about
The decision is the consulate’s, not ours.
We make sure your application is complete, correct and submitted on time.
No agent can promise you a visa — anyone who does is not telling you the truth.
The consulate’s fees are paid to the consulate: we tell you the amount before you
apply, and add nothing to it.
Tell us where you are going
Your nationality, the country you are travelling to and roughly when. We will come back with the visa your trip needs and the list of what to get ready.
Pilgrimages and leisure tours for senior citizens, with a trained care assistant travelling alongside — and daily updates home to the family.

Why families choose us for this
Most operators will carry your parents. We look after them.
A trained assistant, not just a driverYou can book one care assistant to one traveller. They hold the medication
chart, prompt each dose, and stay with the group all day.
You hear from them every dayPhotographs and a short note reach the family each evening, wherever in the
world you are — so not knowing is never part of it.
Routes chosen for the knees, not the mapStep-free wherever it exists, wheelchairs arranged at temples and monuments,
airport assistance requested in advance.
Food as they eat it at homeDiabetic, low-salt, no-onion-no-garlic and Jain meals arranged along the route,
not left to whatever the restaurant has.
Written for families who live far away
If your parents are travelling and you are in Singapore, Chennai or anywhere else, the hardest part is not knowing. We built this service around that.
💊 Medication on schedule
The assistant holds the timing chart you give us and prompts each dose, including before and after meals. Nothing is left to memory at the end of a long travelling day.
♿ Wheelchair, end to end
Airport assistance requested in advance, wheelchairs arranged at temples and monuments, and routes chosen with steps and distances in mind.
🍽️ Food as they eat at home
Diabetic, low-salt, no-onion-no-garlic, Jain or simply plain — told to every kitchen in advance, not negotiated at the table.
🛫 Boarding and queues
Check-in, security and boarding handled with them, and darshan queues arranged so they are not standing longer than they should.
📱 A WhatsApp group for the family
You, your siblings and the assistant in one group. Photographs and a short note each day, so you can see they are well rather than wonder.
🏥 If something is wrong
Hospital contacts identified along the route before departure, and one number your family can call at any hour.
Journeys we run this way
Any of our packages can be run with a care assistant. These are the ones families ask for most.
Conditions, medication, mobility and anything a doctor has advised against. It shapes the route, the pace and the hotels we choose.
👥
One assistant, or one each
A single assistant suits a couple travelling together. For a group, or where mobility needs differ, we recommend one per traveller.
⚠️
What we are not
Our assistants are trained in travel care, not nursing. If a doctor or nurse should travel with your parents, tell us and we will arrange it separately.
Talk to us about your parents’ trip
Tell us where they would like to go and what they need help with. We will come back with a plan, a price and the name of the assistant who would travel with them.

Why India for Medical Tourism?
🏥 JCI-Accredited Hospitals
40+ hospitals in India hold Joint Commission International accreditation — the gold standard in global healthcare quality.
💰 Substantial Cost Savings
Same procedures, same quality, at a fraction of what they cost in the West. Every quotation is prepared on request, against your medical report — the hospital reviews the reports first, so the figure you receive is for your treatment, not an average.
👨⚕️ World-Class Doctors
Many Indian surgeons are trained at top global institutions (Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Oxford) with decades of experience.
⏳ Zero Wait Times
Unlike NHS or Canadian healthcare, procedures in India can be scheduled within days, not months.
🌍 Visa on Arrival
India offers Medical Visa (M Visa) with fast-track processing for patients and up to 2 attendants.
🏖️ Recovery + Tourism
Combine treatment with recovery in Kerala backwaters, Goa beaches, or Himalayan retreats. We handle everything.
